Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Rest. Refer for medical attention .

4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed

Vapors cause mild irritation of eyes and upper respiratory tract; high concentrations may be anesthetic. Liquid irritates eyes and may cause injury; harmless to skin; if ingested causes drunkenness and vomiting. (USCG, 1999)

4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary

Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. /Lower alcohols (1-3 Carbons) and related compounds/

5.Fire-fighting measures

5.1 Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media

If material on fire or involved in fire: Do not extinguish fire unless flow can be stopped. Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Use "alcohol" foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemical

Excerpt from ERG Guide 129 [Flammable Liquids (Water-Miscible / Noxious)]: HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Those substances designated with a (P) may polymerize explosively when heated or involved in a fire. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water. (ERG, 2016)

5.3 Special protective actions for fire-fighters

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

6.Accidental release measures

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions

A very dangerous fire hazard when exposed to heat, flame or oxidizers.The vapour mixes well with air, explosive mixtures are easily formed.ISOPROPANOL reacts with air or oxygen to form dangerously unstable peroxides. Contact with 2-butanone increases the rate of peroxide formation. An explosive reaction occurs when it is heated with (aluminum isopropoxide + crotonaldehyde). Forms explosive mixtures with trinitromethane and hydrogen peroxide. Reacts with barium perchlorate to form a highly explosive compound. Ignites on contact with dioxygenyl tetrafluoroborate, chromium trioxide and potassium-tert-butoxide. Vigorous reactions occur with (hydrogen + palladium), nitroform, oleum, COCl2, aluminum triisopropoxide and oxidizing agents. Reacts explosively with phosgene in the presence of iron salts. Incompatible with acids, acid anhydrides, halogens and aluminum . Isopropanol can react with PCl3, forming toxic HCl gas. (Logsdon, John E., Richard A. Loke., "Isopropyl Alcohol." Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 1996.).

10.4 Conditions to avoid

no data available

10.5 Incompatible materials

During distillation of 2-propanol recovered from the reduction of crotonaldehyde with aluminium isopropoxide, a violent explosion occurred. This was attributed either to peroxidized diisopropyl ether (a possible by-product) or to peroxidized crotonaldehyde.

10.6 Hazardous decomposition products

When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and fumes.

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: Degradation of isopropanol with municipal waste water for 5 and 20 days resulted in a theoretical oxygen demand (ThOD) of 7% and 70%, respectively(1). Degradation of 3, 7 and 10 mg/L of isopropanol with filtered sewage seed in fresh water resulted in a ThOD of 28% in 5 days and 78% in 20 days(2). In 2 other studies, the ThOD for isopropanol using domestic waste water was 66% and 74% in 5 days(1). Isopropanol was 99% degraded with acclimated activated sludge at 20°C (52 mg COD/g-hr rate)(3). Filtered sewage seed resulted in a ThOD of 49% and acclimated sewage seed resulted in a ThOD of 72% after 5 days(4). Degradation of isopropanol with sewage at 20°C for 5 days resulted in a ThOD of 58% (avg 4 results)(5). In domestic waste water, diluted with salt water, a ThOD of 13% in 5 days and 72% in 20 days was observed(1). Biodegradation of 3, 7, and 10 mg/L of isopropanol with filtered sewage seed in salt water resulted in a ThOD of 13% in 5 days and a ThOD of 72% in 20 days(2). Isopropanol, present at 100 mg/L, reached 86% of its theoretical BOD in 2 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test which determined isopropanol to be ready biodegradable(6).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for isopropanol(SRC), using a log Kow of 0.05(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of isopropanol can be estimated to be 1.5(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that isopropanol is expected to have very high mobility in soil.

12.5 Other adverse effects
